How do we onboard storm-season reps quickly without creating risk?▼
Use a template. We build role profiles in your CRM, email and photo apps so a new canvasser or PM gets exactly the access their job needs in a few minutes. Personal phones get app protection that keeps company data inside managed apps and lets us remove it without touching their personal photos. A short security briefing covers the scams they'll see. Most important, every account goes on a list, so the exit is as fast as the start when the season winds down.
Someone is sending fake invoices to our customers. What can we do?▼
Start with your domain. If SPF, DKIM and DMARC aren't set to reject spoofed mail, criminals can send messages that look like they come straight from your company. We fix that, then watch for lookalike domains, which are common after big storms. We also help you send customers a clear statement of how you collect payments and that you never change bank details by email. If customers have already paid a fraudster, we preserve evidence and help you work with your attorney and the bank.
Do you support AccuLynx, JobNimbus and other roofing apps?▼
We support the IT around them: user provisioning, MFA, permissions, integrations with EagleView, Hover, QuickBooks and your email, and the phones and laptops they run on. The software vendor still supports its own product features. Where a problem sits with the vendor, we open and track the ticket. We also make sure data exports and backups exist outside the platform, because relying on any single vendor to be the only copy of your job history is a risk we'd rather you didn't carry.
How should we protect claim photos and paperwork?▼
Treat them as evidence. Photos, drone imagery, inspection notes, contingency agreements and Xactimate estimates should be backed up outside the apps that created them, kept for a defined period and restorable by job. We set up that backup, test it by restoring a full closed job, and lock down who can delete projects. That way a rep deleting work on the way out, or an expired subscription, doesn't wipe out the documentation you need for a supplement, a warranty claim or a dispute.
Can you set up temporary storm offices?▼
Yes. We prepare a standard kit with a firewall, cellular or fixed wireless internet, Wi-Fi and a printer setup that can go up quickly in a rented space. It connects back to your main systems securely and keeps guest traffic separate. We track the equipment, monitor the connection while it's open and reset everything when the office closes. That avoids the common pattern of a temporary office running on a consumer router that nobody remembers to take down.
Does cyber insurance matter for a roofing company?▼
It can. Many roofing contractors carry it now because of email fraud and payment diversion risk. Insurers typically ask about MFA on email and remote access, backups, endpoint protection and employee training before they quote or renew. We help you put those controls in place and document them, so your answers are accurate. What a policy covers, and whether it pays for a given loss, depends on its terms, so read it with your broker rather than assuming.

What does Roofing Contractors IT Services cost for a Houston business?▼
Pricing depends on your size and what you need, so we do not publish a one-size-fits-all number — but Houston businesses generally pay a flat, predictable monthly fee rather than surprise hourly bills. We start with a free, no-obligation assessment of your current setup, then give you a clear quote in plain English with no hidden costs. That way you know exactly what you are getting and what it costs before you commit.
